SNOWMASS MOUNTAIN 14,092 Feet (4295 Meters) Aspen Ranger District 806 West Hallam Aspen, CO 81611 (970) 925-3445 (970) 925-5277- Fax United States Department of Agriculture SNOWMASS MOUNTAIN 14,092 feet (4295 meters) LENGTH: 3 miles from Snowmass Lake ELEVATION GAIN: 3,000 feet AVERAGE HIKING/CLIMBING TIME: USGS MAP(S): Capitol Peak; 3-4 hours one-way Snowmass Mountain SKILL FACTOR: All 14’ers within the Aspen RECOMMENDED SEASON(S): District are for experienced mountaineers only. Late spring and summer/ Early fall ATTRACTIONS/CONSIDERATIONS: Snowmass Mountain is one of the most enjoyable 14ers to climb. It is named for the snow in the East Bowl that remains year round. The view from the summit is outstanding. ACCESS: Snowmass Lake (the base) is reached by trail from three directions: 1) Up Snowmass Creek- 9 miles and 2,100 feet elevation gain; 2) Over Buckskin Pass- 9 miles and 3,000 feet elevation gain; 3) From Geneva Lake- 5 1/2 miles and 2,000 feet elevation gain. NARRATIVE: After reaching camp at Snowmass Lake by any of the three routes, get a good rest and start out early the next day. Cross the outlet and find the trail that circles the shore on the south side of the lake. Follow this to the other end and pick your way up the talus slope to the left of the gully, which is the center of this bench. About 2/3 of the way up the left side, cross the creek to a grassy slope. Cross where the water runs over slabs. Once on the grass, climb to the top of the bench and pick a line that puts you left of the summit. Climb the summit ridge and follow it to the top. Return the same way. The basin may require an ice axe. It is your responsibility to know the hazards involved in your activiities and to use the proper safety procedures and equipment to minimize the inherent risks and hazards related to your activity. As a user of National Forest System Lands, you have significant responsibility for your personal safety during any activity you might persue. The Forest Service installs signs and other information devises at various locations where conditions limit placement of signs or other specific warnings and necessitates the use of more general education efforts. Hazards are not limited to, but include: changing weather conditions, snow, avalanche, landslides and falling rock, caves, overlooks, falling trees or limbs, high or rushing water, contaminated water, wild animals, becoming lost or over exerted, hypothermia, remnants of mining and other activities involving excavation, tunnels, shafts, decaying structures and a variety of dquipment, and changing road and trail conditions. You may also be exposed to unreasonable acts of others. The Forest Service does not manage or control all of these occurrences. The peaks in the White River National Forest do not have designated routes to the top. The Forest Service is currently studying the present, user-created trails to determine the feasibility and desireability of designated routes. For further sources on information and routes to the peaks, please call the office at (970) 925-3445.

Expedition Summary Expedition Name Out For a Rip in the Great White North: a Mountain and River Bonanza Objectives The Alaskan bush is notoriously wild, difficult, and remote. As such, we are going into this trip with no expectations other than to enjoy the beauty and wildness of the Gates of the Arctic National Park and Preserve and the Wild and Scenic Kobuk River. Although one of our objectives is to climb both technical and nontechnical peaks, this would be icing on the cake. Our real goal is to experience a new and challenging landscape together. One of the most rewarding and challenging things about backcountry travel is complete self-reliance. This is one of the driving philosophies of our trip. We will be dropped in the remote Gates of the Arctic National Park, climb and hike in the Arrigetch Peaks, and then paddle 135 miles out along the Wild and Scenic Kobuk River to the town of Kobuk. By traveling out of the Brooks Range under our own power we will experience the landscape in a profoundly intimate way and practice total self-reliance.

  • SNOWMASS SUMMER FACT SHEET Summer 2019
    SNOWMASS SUMMER FACT SHEET Summer 2019 Snowmass, renowned for its iconic scenic beauty, is nestled in the Brush Creek Valley in the heart of the Rocky Mountains. Located just six miles from the Aspen Pitkin County Airport (ASE), nine miles from downtown Aspen, and consistently ranked one of the best ski mountains in the world, Snowmass is a vibrant summer playground. Snowmass offers guests incredible views of mountain vistas and the surrounding Roaring Fork Valley, in addition to 2.8 million adjacent acres, open for activities and exploration. Snowmass offers a wide variety of outdoor activities, over 30 restaurants, 95 percent on-slope lodging, world-class shopping, unique special events and music – all year round. Snowmass features over 90 miles of hiking and biking trails, while the greater Roaring Fork Valley is home to gold medal fly-fishing and Class V whitewater rafting and kayaking. HISTORY: Long before skiers and ranchers discovered Snowmass’ verdant Brush Creek Valley, over 150,000 years ago, mammoths, mastodons and other amazing Ice Age creatures roamed Snowmass. 800 years ago, the Ute Indians hunted, fished, and gathered wild foods around the valley. The first non-natives explored the Elk Mountains as early as 1853 during the Gunnison Survey and by the beginning of the 20th century the valley had been settled primarily as a ranching community. In the early 1960’s, Olympic skier Bill Janss envisioned a European-style village and ski area on its slopes and first opened Snowmass to skiers in December 1967. During the 2017/2018 winter season, Snowmass celebrated the 50th anniversary of the resort and the 40th anniversary of the Town’s incorporation.
